Accessing data from another application

Question

Hi,

Can one application access the data from another application on a Windows Mobile smartphone?
Or is it only privileged applications which can access data stored on the device by other applications?

Thanks!

Answer 1

Yes you can using SSL channels. Take a look on this article

Answer 2

Is there a way I protect my application data from being accessed by another privileged application?
(Encryption is not the answer to this question, I dont want any other application to be able to tamper with the data either). Also, is the memory of the application protected?

Answer 3

Yes you can access any mobile application if you have the privilege. the .Net remoting  is the perfect tool for that
